women. As activist and writer Soraya Chemaly explains, “In the United States…men engage in relaxing and entertaining activities 35 percent of the time that women are doing chores. For women, that number is almost half, 19 percent…. [On weekends] fathers engage in leisure 47 percent of the time that mothers are taking care of kids…. A [UK] survey…found that women have five hours less leisure time a week than men do. Furthermore, since 2000, men’s downtime has increased, while women’s has shrunk.”
